Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Agent Orange It's a lonely place at the back of the A race, but at least I wasn't last.  A mixture of pluses and minuses.  Minuses - course felt like hard work, especially in 4th km; felt I paced myself badly.  Pluses - did my fastest ever km in a race; PB'ed despite the minuses and had lovely support from Fetchies.  With a bit better preparation, that sub-22 minute 5k should be doable

I may PB but then it will only have been 5 days since Draycote. Legs feel ok but I have not really run fast yet.

New course 

4 out of 5 kms at sub 3.30 

1 tough K and my watch time says I missed by a second

course came in .06 long

Official time 17.32

Plus side was a ran really well with my HR up high and came back with a strong Sub 3.30 last KM

At some point I will run a very fast if tapered 5K

Siamese Pete Bring back the old course!
That was flipping hard work, but a PB, and lots of support from other Fetchies made the last km seem a bit shorter.
Great to meet you all before the start - couldn't hang around afterwards though - sorry!

SteveX First go at this. Could only get a place in A race so will have to go under 21 mins. Based on current form should be OK.

Harder than I thought- legs still a bit tired. Windy too. I measured the course about 200m over the 5k. But a benchmark to go quicker next time.

The Teaboy A wake up call. Was third from back in the A race and ran like a total muppet.
